How we handle data
- Every chart names its source and the vintage of the release.
- Revisions are annotated rather than silently overwritten.
- Comparisons across states note definitional differences.
- Series are rebuilt from published official releases, never from secondary summaries.
- Where a definition changes mid-series, the break is marked rather than smoothed.
